Junior Research Fellow

This role is ideal for highly motivated postgraduate candidates in Basic Biological Science, Life Sciences, Veterinary Science, or Animal Science & Allied, who have qualified a National Eligibility Test (NET/GATE) or equivalent national-level exam. Candidates with desirable experience in animal health management, lab animal handling, haemato-biochemical analysis, and computer data management will be highly preferred. It suits individuals seeking a short-term, contractual research opportunity within a reputable veterinary research institute.

Candidates without a postgraduate degree in the specified fields or who have not qualified for a national eligibility test should not apply. Those seeking a permanent government position or long-term career stability might find this contractual role less suitable, as the engagement is for a maximum of 36 months and co-terminus with the project. Individuals unwilling to work in a research environment focused on animal health or those requiring TA/DA for the interview should also consider alternatives.

ICAR-IVRI is a highly respected national institute for veterinary research, offering a prestigious platform for scientific contribution. A Junior Research Fellow position here provides valuable exposure and experience in cutting-edge research, enhancing future career prospects in academia or research within veterinary and life sciences. While the role is contractual, the institutional affiliation adds significant weight to one's professional profile.
